Handsome, highly detailed original engraved 1777 map of northwestern South America, from Panama to Peru.
The image area measures 41 x 23.5 cm [16¼" x 9¼"], and the map was engraved by Sydney Hall.
It was published in the Reverend William Robertson's "History of America," William Strahan & Thomas Cadell, London, 1777.
Topography is drawn in relief, and details include tribal names, towns, villages, and natural features in parts of present-day Peru, Ecuador, Panama, Colombia, and Venezuela.
Among the places and features are Cartagena, Quito, Gulf of Darien, Barbacoas, Amazon River, Esmeraldas, Lake Maracaibo, Malaga, Merida, Cuenca, Gulf of Guayaquil, San Joaquín de Omaguas, Popayán, the lands of the Cundayes along the Meta River east of the Andes, Piura, Santa Fe de Bogotá, and the Great Falls on the Japurá River.
There is a decorative swash title: "Map of the Kingdom of New Granada, and the Countries adjacent from Panama to Guayaquil. For the Revd. Dr. Robertson's 'History of America.'"
Condition: This map is in excellent condition, bright and clean, with a bold, crisp impression and no marks, rips, or tears. It is blank on the back, with no printing on the reverse side. Please see the scans and feel free to ask any questions.
